notify-on-start

this project is made to just send messages to Discord webhooks when events trigger

this was just made to remember whatever goofy things we did in a minecraft server, in discord

or, you know, notify us when the server starts (but not ends)

Prerequisites

Before using this plugin, you must:

• Get Spigot
• Get a JAR file from the releases or Google Drive (the drive folder is frequently updated)

making webhooks

If you already know how, you can skip this step.

To make a webhook:

1. Go to a Discord server.
   You can make a new channel or use an existing one.
2. Right-click on the channel.
3. Click "Edit Channel".
4. Click "Integrations" and click "Webhooks".
5. Click "New Webhook".
6. Give the webhook a name. As an example, we will use notify as the webhook name.
7. You may change the channel where it is associated/linked to, change the webhook name, and set a picture for the webhook.
8. Copy the webhook link.

using this thing

Of course, you must get a release first, as said in the prerequisites. After you get a jar, put it in the plugins folder

On first run, it will make a directory in the server's base directory.
In it, there will be one important file:
This file will be NoS/config_webhook.json.

Of course, put the webhook URL of where the events should be logged in the url_notify field.

The url_publicmsg field is for a command named /send-message. This will simply send text to the webhook containing provided text.
Put the webhook link in it.

An example of what the file's content should be:

{
    "url_notify": "<get the webhook link from earlier and paste>",
    "url_publicmsg": "<same as earlier>"
}

If you change this value, you have to restart the server to apply changes.

By default, its value is:

{
    "url_notify": "default-ns",
    "url_publicmsg": "default-ns"
}
